BMI View: Mining sectors across Central America and the Caribbean will see varying growth prospects in 2019. T he region has significant untapped mineral potential, yet a range of business environments and operational challenges will lead to uneven growth . Overall, the mining sectors of Colombia and Panama will see the strongest longer-term growth, while Guatemala, and to a lesser extent Honduras, will underperform.
Colombia and Panama will outperform other countries in Central America and the Caribbean in terms of mining sector growth over the coming years. The two will lead in their overall business environments and mining sector regulatory frameworks, enabling consistent investment and sector development despite subdued industrial and precious metal prices. Furthermore, both have significant untapped base and precious metal reserves. Colombia will remain one of the world's top exporters of thermal coal in the coming years, and will seek to further diversify its exports and target Asian consumers. Panama will become a major copper exporter once its Cobre Panama copper and gold mine, owned and operated by First Quantum, comes online in Q417, thus delaying significant sector growth until the latter half of the decade.
|Colombia & Panama To Outperform
|Select Countries - Mining Industry Value Growth (% chg y-o-y)
The Dominican Republic and Jamaica will see middling performance over our forecast period. The former has seen its mining sector expand significantly in recent quarters owing to the ramp up of the Pueblo Viejo mine, operated by Barrick Gold and Goldcorp. While the Dominican Republic has other mining projects in development, we expect the overall pace of mining sector expansion will be modest in the years ahead. Meanwhile, Jamaica will also see only modest mining sector growth. We expect relatively new investment in the country's bauxite sector, though subdued oil prices will lower input costs for miners, potentially boosting production over the shorter term.
Frontier Central American Markets To Underperform
We expect mining firms in both Guatemala and Honduras will face operational difficulties stemming from poor rule of law, corruption, violence, and local opposition over the coming years. Between the two, Honduras shows some potential upside though given the country's regulators have seen a significant influx of mining permit applications stemming from an increasingly favourable regulatory environment. Nevertheless, we expect both countries will face continued headwinds given the majority of international mining firms, facing subdued metal prices, continue to eschew frontier destinations with elevated operational risks that impose greater financial costs.

7 of 44 people found the following review helpful
The summer block-buster we have been waiting for!!!,
Finally, a movie sequel that will actully be good!
Terminator 3 will be the best action/adveture movie of the year...and here's why.
1. Jonathan Mostow is the director, his directing stlye (in my oppion) is almost identical to Cameron's. I know James Cameron probally would have been beter (if he didn't have backed out of the project); but, Mostow directed U-571 and I know he has what it takes to make T3 a excellent movie.
2. The film is rated "R", for no-holds-bar non-stop action and violence. Don't expect T3 to any censor-oriented scenes. (Unlike the lame "Matrix Reloaded")
3. It took the cast and crew a very long time to make this movie. A full 3-min teaser was out for the movie over a year ago.
4. The special FX's will astonishing! They will most-likely win an Academy Award, if the Academy dosen't go politcal and give it to LOTOR for the third straight year!
5. Just look at the trailers! Seriously! GO LOOK AT THE TRAILERS!!

I am new to the game, freshly retired from WoW. I raided mostly as a Warlock, but palyed a Paladin near the end and wanted to pick up with that new found enjoyment in DnD. I am new to DnD Online, but I grew up on DnD novels and tabletop gaming. I have read a lot of Dragonlance and Forgotten Realms. The temptation to make a Drow fighter/ranger/bbn multiclass was strong
I am trying to decide between the Warpriest Cleric, Angel of Vengeance FvS, or any of the Pally builds. Typically in game I love to solo, and solo the hardest content that can be soloed. Its a pleasurable habit I picked up when playing an Enchanter in EverQuest 1, long time ago. When grouping at the higher levels, I enjoy being a mix of dps and utility. Utility can be buffs, offtanking, offhealing, etc.
Any advice from the community would be great. Thanks in advance

While mom Angelina Jolie and dad Brad Pitt were otherwise engaged, their children took time Saturday to hang out with their grandfather, Jon Voight.
The Oscar winner, 72, took Shiloh, 5, Zahara, 6 and Pax, 7, out to stretch their legs on Richmond Green, a grassy area not far from their rental home in the London suburb.
"There was a cricket match on so they just stopped to have a look," an onlooker tells PEOPLE. "Jon explained to the children what was going on [with the game] it was a really traditional English scene."

It is, as Texas Gov. Rick Perry so controversially remarked, a Ponzi scheme, and as with every other Ponzi scheme, those who got in early get theirs, and those who came later get fleeced.
So what do we do? Well, when a thing is unsustainable — as all of our entitlement programs are — then they must be made sustainable or end. And the sooner that we do this, the less will we all have to suffer.
Imagine my dismay, then, upon reading in National Journal that Sens. Charles E. Schumer and Richard J. Durbin announced that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is "not bringing entitlements to the table" in fiscal cliff negotiations.
In that case, all I can say is: End Medicare. Vote Democrat.

This is an art project. Look at these promo shots for Season 6, which begins on April 7, 2013 on AMC? Well. Done.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Feb. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Frost & Sullivan, the Growth Partnership Company, reaffirms its position that the economy is regaining its strength, thanks in part to an unprecedented US $1 trillion stimulus package from the US government and additional stimulus packages from foreign governments.
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20081117/FSLOGO)
"President Obama's stimulus package is clearly serving to convince businesses and consumers that we can get back on track," explains David Frigstad, Chairman of Frost & Sullivan. "The program will stimulate optimism and let the U.S. -- and the rest of the world -- get back to business."
Firm executives also cite the following critical indicators as evidence that confidence and prosperity will soon be revived.
-- Existing U.S. home sales are up 4.91%. -- U.S. retail sales are finally in the black, with January sales posting an increase of 1% from the previous month. -- High GDP rates in emerging markets -- Near-zero fed rates and high dividends in emerging economy stocks
Frost & Sullivan believes that businesses and consumers alike are allowing fear to adversely affect their judgment. By cutting spending and cutting costs, they only serve to perpetuate the economic downward spiral. "This irrational behavior needs to cease," states Frigstad, "or else companies will not be able to recover and return to growth."
The strength of Asian banks and financial services firms gives an indication that Asian companies will lead the global rebound. "New capitalist entrants and emerging markets will become a powerful driver of the global economy, and will have a huge impact going forward," concludes Frigstad.

Arctic Mosquitoes Will Increase With Climate Change
Mosquitoes will appear in much greater numbers in the Arctic as it warms because of climate change, with negative consequences for caribou and the indigenous people who live off them, researchers warn. The survival rates for Arctic mosquitoes will increase by more than 50 percent with a 2C temperature rise in the region, says the study by… Read More
Arctic Sea Ice Hits Annual Minimum, 4th Lowest on Record
Arctic sea ice appears to have reached its annual summer low point, and, as expected, it is the fourth lowest in the four decades of record-keeping, the National Snow and Ice Data Center in Boulder, Colo., announced Tuesday. While summer ice melt is part of the normal seasonal sea ice cycle, the record lows reached in recent years are a clear sign… Read More

The shell of ice that covers the Arctic Ocean is nearing its yearly low point, and projections suggest that it will be among the four lowest summer minimums on record.

Arctic Sea Ice Volume Rebounds, But Not Recovering
Over the last few decades, and particularly in recent years, the area of the Arctic Ocean covered by a skin of sea ice has steadily shrunk.

The 2010 launch of the European… Read More

As of Saturday, June 1, 2013
© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
North Gwinnett defensive end Dante Sawyer has narrowed it down. He has a top four for college, but he's still unsure of where he will go.
By the end of summer, however, Sawyer feels like he'll be ready to choose between Alabama, Georgia, Auburn and Tennessee.
"It's all going to come down to academics and if it's a family atmosphere when I visit those places," Sawyer said. "I want to major in business management, so they need to have a good program there."
Sawyer said he receives tweets all the time from fans who tell him they need to go to his school.
"Usually, fans from rival schools will start arguing with each other about it," he said. "You can't help but laugh at it."
While the decision may come at the end of summer, Sawyer knows his work won't be finished there, adding he has to stay focused not only in football, but in the classroom.
Ready to get going
Norcross running back/wide receiver Myles Autry hates sitting on the sideline.
After injuring his knee in last year's playoffs, he's been itching to return to the field.
In less than a month, Autry said he'll be back on the field and ready to help Norcross make a run at back-to-back state titles. He does admit the recruiting scene has been stressful, but that he takes it all in stride.
"It's still too early for me to name a top five as I'm still looking into things," he said. "I'm going to take my visits and go from there."
Autry feels like he'll have his top five by the beginning of the season, but isn't sure if he would commit near that time or wait closer to signing day.
"I have to see myself in that offense and feel like it's home," he said. "I'm going to major in finance or mechanical engineering, so they need to have a good program in one of those."
100 percent committed
Peachtree Ridge offensive lineman Orlando Brown is 100 percent committed to Tennessee.
"I'm done with my visits to other schools," he said. "Tennessee is home. I love the coaching staff and feel like I can trust them."
Brown said that he and new teammate Nick Glass (committed to Georgia) enjoy talking smack with each other, but that's as far as it goes.
"We talk about it, but it's all in good fun," he said. "We focused on trying to win games at Peachtree Ridge right now."
Tweet a day
Gainesville quarterback DeShaun Watson has been committed to Clemson for a long time. However, rumors keep popping up that he's considering other schools.
He said most days he's having to explain to coaches and family the rumors aren't true.
"I almost feel like I have to start my day sending out a tweet that says I'm still committed to Clemson," Watson said. "It's not changing."
Watson said he laughs at the rumors and finds in hilarious the "inside information" people supposedly have.
"It's annoying sometimes, but you can't help but laugh," he said. "I'm committed to Clemson and it's not going to change ...period."
Commitment coming before season
Central defensive back Darius Lattimore said he will commit before the start of the football season so he can concentrate on grades and football.
Currently, he has offers from Middle Tennessee State, Tennessee, Georgia Tech, Virginia, Kansas State and Appalachian State, among others.
"In the end, it's going to come down to where I fit on the depth chart and the major I want to do (sports medicine)," he said. "You have to have a plan for after football and that's something I want to do."
Tennessee in the lead
Norcross liebacker Kevin Mouhon currently has Tennessee as his No. 1, but said that can change.
With no other top schools, Mouhon said he's also considered Florida State, Oregon and Miami.
"In the end, it's not going to be all about football," he said. "I want to go somewhere where I'll be happy. That's what it's going to come down to."
Issahaku trying to make a name for himself
Norcross' Ridwan Issahaku understood this could happen when he transferred from Meadowcreek. After not playing his junior year (due to transfer rules), Issahaku dropped off the radar for many teams, but that is only motivating him further.
"It humbled me in a way," he said. "I know I just have to continue to work hard."
Issahaku is making the transfer from quarterback to cornerback, which he said has been an adjustment.
"I'm learning, but I'm getting better each day," he said. "I currently have an offer from Western Kentucky, but am hoping to get more."
Offers still coming in
Mill Creek running back Johnathan Hawkins, a transfer from Central, is just starting the recruiting process. However, he knows his family is waiting on one offer to come."
"They're all LSU fans and would put a lot of presure on me to commit there if I was offered," he said. "The little kid in me would be excited to get an offer from them, but it would have no effect on my decision. I have to go where I think it's the best for me."
Hawkins currently has offers from Auburn, Arkansas, Penn State and Florida State.
With a plan to major in mathmatics, Hawkins said he could see himself as an accountant or as a math teacher.
"If I did that, then I could coach as well," Hawkins said.

Bigotry is bigotry as some Hongkongers tell mainland tourists to go home
Most Popular
When my father went to London in the 1960s for several months to prepare and take a qualifying law exam, he was told at least a few times by total strangers in the street to "go home". When my wife went to England and Wales as a foreign student in the 1980s, she was likewise told to "go home". In time, they did what they were told. So, at a gut level, I feel a bitter irony that Chinese are now being told to go home by fellow Chinese waving British colonial flags in what is Chinese territory - Hong Kong.
Look, I get it; there are two narratives here, one legitimate, the other not. The first one is that Hong Kong has finite space and resources, and cannot cope with such a large influx of mainland visitors. That has caused serious tensions and problems in our society and economy. So instead of opening the floodgates, the right response ought to be: you are welcome here like any other visitors but unlike before, there is now a regulated queue for you to join. I believe mainland officials and would-be visitors would understand and accept that.
There is another message sent by people such as those who rallied against mainlanders in Tsim Sha Tsui. It was printed on some of their banners, which said: "Locusts, die going home". The people who demand that the "locusts" get lost say they were driven to it by mainlanders' bad behaviour and other negative effects on the city. Their apologists say while their behaviour may not be commendable, it's justified given the adverse socio-economic effects of the mainland horde. But if you are rational and decent, you would send the first but not the second message. The self-styled anti-locust crowds look more like they are projecting their own hate and resentment, anxieties, fears and prejudices at a highly visible and easily identifiable group. Some otherwise intelligent and educated people use what is clearly a reasonable concern to justify and whitewash such repugnant chauvinism and bigotry.
I take it as a moral axiom that it is never right to target a particular group with labels that demonise or dehumanise them such as likening them to insects. You know this is happening when you won't get away with applying such labels to any other groups than the one targeted. Societies that allow that to happen rarely end well.

From my own experiences, I have been told to go home in Australia and the UK. In Hong Kong I have been told that I am a foreigner and know nothing. Also in Hong Kong I regularly have to bite my tongue as foreign acquaintances get stuck in on the Chinese (my wife is Chinese and we have a daughter). There are racists in all societies. I think it is better than the term bigot. Bigot is generally interpreted as 'ignorant'. Racists generally have an agenda. Bigots are just stupid.
I hope you will take more care with what you write on this matter.
Your misunderstanding is the crux of the issue. No one asked Hong Kong if they wanted to become British or Chinese or independent. China just said "mine mine" and the UK said "OK sure". You can talk all you want about history and ethnicity and who rightfully owns which piece of land, but the fact of the matter is that HK is different, and the interests of the HK people were never truly consulted.
CY won't change the quota because he doesn't have the authority to. Chinese officials could stop the mad dash to Hong Kong by improving their own schools, lowering the insane taxes on luxury goods and cosmetics, and giving a damn about food safety. Beijing could let HK rightfully choose its own government. There are a ton of steps to reduce animosity, and Beijing has done nothing but whine about ungrateful Hong Kong.
It's wrong to compare people to insects. But the government is completely unresponsive to the people. The upcoming rigged elections in 2017 will only further this unresponsiveness. Media outlets critical of Beijing are being swept away. How can HK people express their displeasure? No media or politician will tell their story. So people resort to these extreme outbursts. They will only get worse until Beijing gets its grubby hands off Hong Kong.

The fact that such a demonstration happened was deplorable ( even disgusting)
But the fact that it seemed NO-ONE in govt would even listen to the fact that for the average Mr / Ms Average Local HK Citizen the number of mainland tourists has already become unbearable is even more deplorable ( and Greg So was gaily predicting - nay encouraging - even more mainland tourists !).
Basic fact : for Mr/ Ms Average Local HK Citizen enough is enough. To h**l with the fact that the tourist industry contributes 4.5% to our GDP. I would rather have our GDP cut by 4.5% than live in a city where life has become unbearable the moment I leave home and try to walk anywhere or shop anywhere or travel anywhere. .
Has no-one in govt ever read the book " Tipping Point" ?
Yes I too predict a huge turnout on July 1, and for the first time in years I will march as well.
The tipping point has finally come - at least as regards the number of tourists
Mr. Lo speaks of a regulated queue. That may be the basis for a solution. Where's the government?

The footage of a little Chinese girl - not neccessarily from the mainland - looking bewildered and scared hanging on to the hand of her parent as demonstrators heckled them fiercely with racist slogans outside a luxury brand shop - puts the demonstrators in the same league as the neo Nazis and other extremist groups. Putting racism aside, what did the couple and the little girl do to deserve such treatment at the hands of total strangers? Why have no democrat make any stand on this?
It is plain that this group will just hijack any cause - in this case, the problems caused by mainland tourists affecting the everyday life of locals - to justify their narrow minded, racist hatred of mainland China propelled by their own inherent hatred, insecurity, discontent and jealousy of anybody else richer and more successful than themselves. These "convictions" is further strenghtened by opportunists who capitalise their political mileage by cheering them on.
As for waving the Union Jack, this is comic since there is no way the UK will accept these guys...elsewhere too.
Also for the often cited reason that they resort to this because they have "no choice" or that "the government isn't listening", that is a very subjective and tricky road to navigate since you could literally use that same reason to escalate anything (eg. not getting your food order on time, not getting a seat for your child are the right school or even getting grades that you think you deserve) to the level of insults and threats.

Hancock Reports First Quarter 2014 Financial Results Company Achieves Expense Goals Three Quarters Ahead of Schedule GULFPORT, Miss., April 16, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hancock Holding Company (Nasdaq:HBHC) today announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2014. Operating income for the first quarter of 2014 was $49.1 million or $.58 per diluted common share, compared to $45.8 million, and $.55 in the fourth quarter of 2013. Operating income was $48.6 million, or $.56, in the first quarter of 2013. We define our operating income as net income excluding tax-effected securities transactions gains or losses and one-time noninterest expense items. Management believes that operating income provides a useful measure of financial performance that helps investors compare the company's fundamental operations over time. The financial tables include a reconciliation of net income to operating income. There were no adjustments between operating income and net income for the first quarters of 2013 and 2014.In the fourth quarter of 2013, net income reflected the impact of certain one-time noninterest expenses of $17.1 million.Net income for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $34.7 million, or $.41 per diluted common share, with a ROA of 0.74%. Highlights of the Company's first quarter of 2014 results: *Continued improvement in the overall quality of earnings (replacing declining purchase accounting income with core results) *Operating expenses declined $10.1 million linked-quarter, or 6%, exceeding the first quarter's expense goal and achieving the targeted fourth quarter goal ahead of schedule *Efficiency ratio improved to 62%; additional branch closures and the previously announced divestiture of selected insurance lines of business will fund revenue-generating projects that will contribute to achieving the efficiency ratio target for 2016 of 57%-59% *Core net interest income (TE) was flat linked-quarter; core net interest margin (NIM) narrowed 3 basis points (bps) (we define our core results as reported results less the impact of net purchase accounting adjustments) *Approximately $231 million linked-quarter net loan growth, or 8% annualized, and approximately $1.2 billion, or 11%, year-over-year loan growth (each excluding the FDIC-covered portfolio) *Purchase accounting loan accretion declined $.6 million; expect continuation of quarterly declines with accelerating declines in the second half of 2014 *Continued improvement in overall asset quality metrics *Return on average assets (ROA) (operating) improved to 1.05% from 0.97% in the fourth quarter of 2013 and 1.03% in the first quarter a year ago "A lot of hard work and focus has allowed us to meet our fourth quarter of 2014 expense target three quarters ahead of schedule, and I would like to thank all of our associates for achieving thisaggressive goal," said Hancock's President and Chief Executive Officer Carl J. Chaney."But we are not done.As we continue our work to improve the quality of our earnings (replacing declining purchase accounting income with core income), we expect operating EPS to remain flat in the near term.Over the next couple of quarters you may see expenses rise slightly as we reinvest in higher-return, revenue-generating lines of business to help achieve our efficiency ratio targets, however we remain committed to keeping expenses for the fourth quarter of 2014 in line with our stated goal." Loans Total loans at March 31, 2014 were $12.5 billion, up $203 million from December 31, 2013.Excluding the FDIC-covered portfolio, which declined $28 million during the first quarter of 2014, total loans increased approximately $231 million, or 2% linked-quarter. The largest component of linked-quarter net growth (excluding the FDIC-covered portfolio) was in the commercial and industrial (C&I) portfolio, with additional growth in the construction, commercial real estate (CRE) and residential mortgage portfolios. Many of the markets across the company's footprint reported net period-end loan growth during the quarter, with the majority of the growth in the Houston, southwest Louisiana, Mississippi, and central Florida regions. For the full year of 2014 management expects period-end loan growth in the upper single digit range. Average loans totaled $12.4 billion for the first quarter of 2014, up $476 million, or 4%, from the fourth quarter of 2013.A substantial portion of the fourth quarter's net loan growth came toward the latter part of the period, impacting the average for the first quarter. Deposits Total deposits at March 31, 2014 were $15.3 billion, down $86 million, or less than 1%, from December 31, 2013.Average deposits for the first quarter of 2014 were $15.3 billion, up $353 million, or 2%, from the fourth quarter of 2013. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits (DDAs) totaled $5.6 billion at March 31, 2014, up $84 million, or 2%, compared to December 31, 2013.DDAs comprised 37% of total period-end deposits at March 31, 2014. Interest-bearing transaction and savings deposits totaled $6.1 billion at the end of the first quarter, down $45 million, or 1%, from December 31, 2013. Time deposits (CDs) and interest-bearing public fund deposits totaled $3.5 billion at March 31, 2014, down $125 million, or 3%, from December 31, 2013.Almost all of the decline was in the public fund deposit category, and reflects the seasonality of those deposits.Typically public fund balances increase toward year end with subsequent reductions beginning in the first quarter. Asset Quality Non-performing assets (NPAs) totaled $180 million at March 31, 2014, down $6 million from December 31, 2013.During the first quarter, total non-performing loans remained virtually unchanged while foreclosed and surplus real estate (ORE) and other foreclosed assets decreased $7 million.Non-performing assets as a percent of total loans, ORE and other foreclosed assets was 1.43% at March 31, 2014, down from 1.50% at December 31, 2013. The total allowance for loan losses was $128.2 million at March 31, 2014, down from $133.6 million at December 31, 2013. The ratio of the allowance to period-end loans was 1.02%, compared to 1.08% at year-end 2013.The decline in the allowance during the first quarter was primarily related to a $9.7 million reduction in the allowance on covered loans, of which $7.2 million was a reversal of previous impairment.The allowance maintained on the non-covered portion of the loan portfolio increased $4.3 million linked-quarter, totaling $84.8 million at March 31, 2014. Net charge-offs from the non-covered loan portfolio were $4.0 million, or 0.13% of average total loans on an annualized basis in the first quarter of 2014, down from $5.2 million, or 0.17% of average total loans in the fourth quarter of 2013. During the first quarter of 2014, Hancock recorded a total provision for loan losses of $8.0 million, up from $7.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2013.The provision for non-covered loans was $8.3 million in the first quarter of 2014, up slightly from $7.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2013.The net provision from the covered portfolio was a credit of $0.3 million for the first quarter of 2014 compared to a credit of $0.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin Net interest income (TE) for the first quarter of 2014 was $168.2 million, virtually unchanged from the fourth quarter of 2013.Average earning assets were $16.7 billion, up approximately $364 million from the fourth quarter of 2013. The reported net interest margin (TE) was 4.06% for the first quarter of 2014, down 3 basis points (bps) from the fourth quarter of 2013.The core net interest margin (reported net interest income (TE) excluding total net purchase accounting adjustments, annualized, as a percent of average earning assets) declined 3 bps to 3.37% during the first quarter of 2014.A decline in the core loan yield (-7 bps) was partly offset by an improved earning asset mix and higher yields on investment securities (+4 bps). Noninterest Income Noninterest income, including securities transactions, totaled $56.7 million for the first quarter of 2014, down $2.3 million from the fourth quarter of 2013.Included in the decline is an increase of $2.3 million in the amortization of the indemnification asset.The amortization was $3.9 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared to $1.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, and reflects a lower level of expected future losses on covered loans. Service charges on deposits totaled $18.7 million for the first quarter of 2014, down $0.9 million, or 5%, from the fourth quarter of 2013.Bankcard and ATM fees totaled $10.6 million, down approximately $0.7 million, or 6%, from the fourth quarter of 2013.A portion of the linked-quarter decrease is related to having two fewer business days in the first quarter of 2014 for these fee income categories. Trust, investment and annuity, and insurance fees totaled $18.9 million, up $0.8 million, or 4%, from the fourth quarter of 2013.Included in the total was $3.7 million of insurance revenue.The company announced on April 1, 2014 the divestiture of selected insurance business lines.As a result, insurance revenue is expected to decline by approximately half beginning in the second quarter of 2014. Fees from secondary mortgage operations totaled $2.0 million for the first quarter of 2014, up $0.4 million, or 26%, linked-quarter.The increase reflects a higher level of loans sold in the secondary market during the quarter. Noninterest Expense & Taxes Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2014 totaled $147.0 million.Noninterest expense totaled $174.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 and included $17.1 million of one-time costs related to the expense and efficiency initiative.Excluding these costs, noninterest expense (or operating expense) totaled $157.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 and were down $10.1 million, or 6%, linked-quarter. Total personnel expense was $81.4 million in the first quarter of 2014, down $3.5 million, or 4%, from the fourth quarter of 2013 excluding one-time costs.Occupancy and equipment expense totaled $15.5 million in the first quarter of 2014, down $0.8 million, or 5%, from the fourth quarter of 2013.The reduction in the personnel, occupancy and equipment expense categories reflects in part a full quarter's impact from the sale of 7 Houston area branches completed on November 8, 2013, the sale of 3 Alexandria, Louisiana area branches completed on January 10, 2014 and the closure of two branches that had been previously announced.Management has continued to review its current branch network and expects to close an additional 16 branch locations in Mississippi, Florida and Louisiana in early third quarter 2014 as part of its ongoing branch rationalization process. ORE expense totaled $1.8 million in the first quarter of 2014, up $0.2 million from the fourth quarter of 2013. Other operating expense totaled $41.3 million in the first quarter of 2014, down $5.9 million, or 13%, from the fourth quarter of 2013 excluding one-time costs.The decrease is mainly related to lower costs for advertising and professional services. The effective income tax rate for the first quarter of 2014 was 27%, up from 20% in the fourth quarter of 2013.The increase in the tax rate is primarily related to several additional New Market Tax Credit investments that were closed during the fourth quarter of 2013, reducing the rate for that quarter.Management expects the effective tax rate to approximate 27% for the remainder of 2014.The effective income tax rate continues to be less than the statutory rate of 35% due primarily to tax-exempt income and tax credits. Capital Common shareholders' equity at March 31, 2014 totaled $2.5 billion.The tangible common equity (TCE) ratio was 9.24%, up 24 bps from December 31, 2013.Final settlement of the accelerated share repurchase (ASR) transaction will be completed in May, with approximately 600,000 shares expected to be received.Management continues to review a full range of the strategic options presented by Hancock's strong capital position, including additional stock buybacks, organic growth, acquisitions or increased dividends.Additional capital ratios are included in the financial tables.

This game is a lot of fun to play and very simple to understand. It has very pretty graphics and is quite a challenge. I would really like to see it updated with more upgrades types and play modes like on the xbox version. Overall very entertaining and unique.
Make an update
When I downloaded this game, I didn't work because when I open the app, it was pitch black and it couldn't start and I really want to play this game. Update this app and fix the problem so it will work really well please.
This game is fun and challenging, especially if you are trying to achieve a medal level score. However, the game loads only about 50% of the time on my iPod touch.

Thermo Time Switch Reviews - 1985 Toyota 4Runner
Genuine | W0133-1609037
The part was a actually from Toyota and was the correct part with correct copper washer. The only complaint was that I paid $20.00 for 2-3 day shipping and if took 7 days. I use the website support email and I tried to get someone on the phone. No one ever answered the phone for two days and although they say you will get an email within 24hrs I never did. Good part, Terrible service.
